This is the start of Tuesday's daily thread, with all the important news from, and relevant to, Ukraine in one handy place.

It's Day 1385 and I've still never missed a day of fact checking, analysing and reporting every aspect of the defence against Russia's illegal war.

Finally my paper is finished. I tore into ruzzia's justification for going to war through JWT. I just need to cut some words for the word count.

Day 1384 of Russia's illegal (full) invasion of its neighbour - a second invasion in 8 years.
There will be a third too, and other countries seeing unwelcome visits from war criminals pretending to be peacemakers.

Today 4 European leaders meet - have they the balls to say "no"?

Here I am again, here again is the daily thread.
Hopefully worth waiting for.

It was another destructive night as Ukraine's air defence just cannot cover the whole country + Russia inflicted more civilian death as well as damage to critical infrastructure. Let's begin Day 1383.

Day 1381 of Ukraine fighting for its life, fighting for the lives of every single person in the largest country entirely within Europe.

Imagine going to bed 1,381 times in a row not knowing if you'll be woken by missiles, if you'll still have a home or even be alive.

ruzzia's long arms can extend to us on this Island. Another reason for our neighbours in the Republic of Ireland to join NATO. The full island will be protected.

This is the start of Thursday's daily🧵covering Ukraine's fight for its sovereignty + very existence

It's Day 1380 of the colonial war waged by Russia. Many are convinced we're close to a settlement, but how can you trust terrorists, particularly after breaking myriad promises?

Reading political philosophy for a paper I'm writing has been a struggle. I'm using Lackey to critique Walzer's domestic analogy. It's an interesting topic but it's rather slow for my neurodiverse mind.

Good morning on Day 1379 of the war in Europe.

The day after the 'crunch' Moscow talks and... nothing's changed. Ukraine wants peace. Russia refuses.

Strangely, still no post from Trump on Putin's latest humiliation of US 'power'

It's the daily thread - still never missed a day!

Hello again - it's Tuesday's daily thread for Day 1378 of the full Russian invasion.

It's the day Russia will again pretend it wants peace as a woefully underqualified and historically ignorant US "envoy" meets Putin again.

Moscow: 6
Kyiv: 0

Kinsella's last sentence is awful. Moreover, he uses the term 'proxy war' a term favoured by ruzzian propagandists and government officials. A quick search proves this via the RAND corportation.

The German forces have acquired the Arrow-3 anti-ballistic missile systems, which will be deployed this week. It is the first deployment of that system outside Israel and the costs amount around $3.6 billion. Its mission profile is to destroy incoming ballistic missiles or satellites in low orbit.

Reading pacfist papers about the war is soul destroying. The author of this paper states he is against putin, but he also mirrors ruzzian propaganda points at times very subtly. The DOI should be open access if anyone is interested.

The missile fell after it had risen to a height of about 550 meters from the launch point. Unfortunately, the launch shaft was not damaged. The impact occurred almost a kilometer (800 meters) from the launch site.
